Here's the blurb: After too many failed relationships, too many shots of tequila, and too many not-so-gentle nudges from her best friend, Sydney Montrose joins an online dating site in hopes of finding THE ONE. During her adventures, she crosses paths with a professional gamer who lives with his parents, a sweet and sarcastic parking enforcement officer, a flirty barista, a mystery man, a touchy-feely former felon, and a clown. Which one will she choose? Well, that's all entirely up to you!
And here's an excerpt, continuing from where we left off:
His pace quickened and she tottered
on her heels to keep up with him. “Where you off to in such a hurry?”
“Gonna
call it quits a bit early today. I have something more important to do.”
Was
that more innuendo? “Did you know
that you can drive away while an officer’s writing you a parking ticket? I mean,
like, if they haven’t actually done the deed and put the ticket on your
windshield, and if they don’t get it written by the time you drive off, they’re
SOL...which is actually kind of funny if you think about it because....”
“So
why didn’t you try it?” he interrupted her, thank God.
She
took a deep breath and stopped moving, forcing him to jerk to a stop as well.
“It was more fun trying to convince you not to write it.”
